It seems to have gone unnoticed, but Sarah Palin and the Alaskan citizens do not pay state income or sales taxes. They tax the oil companies who pass the cost to the citizens of the other states when they fill up their gas tanks.
In short, the average non-Alaskan pays for the Alaskan government and its services while the Alaskans get a free ride. In addition, the Alaskan citizen is given a "bonus" each year, again from taxes on the oil companies, and ultimately by the average US citizen.

When Palin was governor and running for VP the citizens of the other states were paying her salary as governor. She was not paying state income or sales taxes like the citizens of the other states . Even today, everyone else in the other states pays her taxes for her.
When you think about it, since the US average citizen paid her salary, not only did they pay for her states taxes but also her federal income taxes because that came out of her salary. She was running on a platform of lower federal taxes when everyone else were paying hers. She is still touting the the same idea, ignoring the fact that everyone else is paying her way.
She seems to be quite proud that her state is so prosperous. Of course it is. Everyone else is paying Alaska's way, even in these difficult economic times. They do not have the cash cow that Alaska has and have to pay for their own state governments out of pocket as well as Alaska's.

She is speaking with a forked tongue. She is talking about reducing taxes when the rest of the US citizens are paying her State income and sales taxes for her.
